ABSTRACT:
An elongated cage is selective in entrapping only pit vipers, the cage being open at one end to provide ingress for the triangular-shaped head of a pit viper, the other end of the cage being closed to prevent egress. A noose is placed at the open end, the noose allowing the snake to insert its head therethrough but constricting the neck at the junction of the neck and the head as the snake attempts to withdraw its head and the base of the triangular head abuts the nether side of the noose. A stake and tether anchor the cage which is customarily located in paths believed to be frequented by snakes. Rodent odor is sometimes used to enhance the trap's capabilities.
